Playing as Gwen

  • Always be Attacking - In addition to dealing bonus damage, Gwen's Attacks empower or reset many of her Abilities.
  • Gwen can still damage enemies outside her Hallowed Mists, especially with her Ultimate's range.
  • Some of Gwen's Abilities can apply her passive to multiple enemies, so aim them at groups to get maximum damage and healing.

Playing against Gwen

  • Gwen's Hallowed Mist shroud will only follow her once, after that it will dissipate when she leaves.
  • Gwen must hit something to recast her Ultimate, try to evade her between casts.
  • Gwen needs to attack a few times to set up her damage, so try to get the jump on her.
